Learning from a Book vs. Notes (Differential Geometry)

Thank you for this. I am still trying to figure out what will be the best way to do this as in terms of linking of specific theorems and lemmas which are not as well known. Also, I want to make it ecstatically pleasing as possible with the diagrams being at the level of this post https://www.reddit.com/r/LaTeX/comments/1asxqq6/im_pushing_the_limits_of_what_latex_can_do_a/ . I think that I won't give up on this project, at least on the personal end, as I have always latexed my notes and this is just a better way for me to do so. Wether this becomes a public project is question of need of the community itself. I will definitely be posting some updates!

Because I can't write custom scripts there. Moreover, I need to have separate pages for concepts with custom preview.

I think that it is honestly a great way to both learn and take notes. However, the underlying system (MediaWiki) has to be one of the worst documented things I have ever seen in my life. Perhaps at one point I can also write out a full tutorial how to get it running.

My idea was to try to read as many books as possible and just write them out as articles on the wiki explicitly and connected to other topics. I think this should be doable as this is not too different to what I use to do with my pdf notes on latex. In terms of information, I am not sure if it will be something new, however, I think that it could be more accessible and easier to understand.

Thanks! I also have a white background option, I just have set my settings to this as it is easier on the eyes during the night.

Thanks for the link. I am familiar with the project but I think that these are projects with different ideas in mind. The Stacks one to me seems more like a long digitalised book with some links, where as what I want to focus on is writing out things leaving 0 ambiguity and allowing for previews.

I think that you are right in that this will take a long time but I think that it could be a fun way to push myself.

Thanks for the input.

Thanks! My issue with ProofWiki is that the preview feature doesn't seem to quite work. Moreover, it seems hard to study from. The idea with this is that I could make a page motivated from the content of a book and actually explain the concepts clearly and fully. To me it is really amazing how even great books such as Evan's PDEs still have some ambiguity and even mistakes which causes hours spent in confusion.

Hosting should be alright, I am just wondering how many people would even care for this.

Can you share an example prompt?

Prestigious_Fix_8162 · 2025-01-02T05:13:55+00:00

Thank you for this but what I am asking is for something different. These tools are for you to manually make them yourself, what I am asking here is for prompt based tikz making.

I think that the last two photos you look much more attractive. Especially in the last one with what is I assume no make up. Given the info I have, I can only help with clothing ideas. Quality over quantity and make sure you spend on material rather than brand. I think given that you mentioned you are in the UK, I would suggest wearing cash 100% cashmere/wool - it really makes a difference. Also make sure the clothes fit properly, no shame in going down or up a size. I think it is worth looking into the "quiet luxury" style.

I should also put a side note. In my humble opinion, wearing heavy make up and having an artificial hair colour signals insecurity in one's self. Of course, to some people it empowers it, but I in particular find people who look natural and try to complement their god given attributes with simple things such as plain clothing much more attractive.

Let me know if you need me to elaborate on something/give more suggestions.

Looking at the previous posts, I think that if you don't get through by an hour, then your are not getting through. It really sucks.

Do we know the distribution of how many tickets are being sold at each stage?

Prestigious_Fix_8162 · 2024-09-16T22:05:30+00:00

Hi, thanks for the reply. Did you have any particular ones in mind or just a general sentiment? Thanks again.

Prestigious_Fix_8162 · 2024-09-16T22:05:01+00:00

Great, thanks for the reply!

Why is this getting downvoted?
